Since Bombo entered the contemporary furniture arena in 1996, this adjustable stool has remained one of the most significant Italian-made designs, and one of the most widely-copied around the world.

But make no mistake, there is only one Bombo, as is clear from the wording of the logo “Bombo The Original”, defending the quality of the design, the materials and the production. Only Magis could come up with such an inimitable product, and only Magis could improve on it. The new version of Bombo, in a single titanium hue for both seat and base,with an elegantly glamorous finish, is fitted with a gas piston to reach heights of up to 80 cm, making it even more practical and wellsuited to the needs of the contract world, as well as domestic use. The base has also been fine-tuned to ensure perfect stability on any surface: Magis thinks of everything.
